Never seen one on the road
« on: 08 October 2013, 18:15 »
Hope to collect Mid November.
Seen a couple on dealers forecourt.
BUT   Never seen one on the road.

Am I the only one???

Not the sort of thing to admit, but I keep looking and I still haven't seen one.

5door GTi white manual, Performance Pack  ACC  Discover Nav Pro  Winter Pack   Dynaudio  Pan roof   Park assist  Service Pack
All gone since 2001 some forgotten. Porsche Boxster/Cooper S Works/Merc CLK/Gti MK5/ Audi TT/ GTi Ed 30/BMW 123d/Ford Kuga/GTi Ed 35. All new all lost money, some a lot more than others.(except edition 35 which lost nothing  in 9 months other than its wings, suspension, roof etc))

I see the same one every day. And I'm in it !  :smiley:

But to answer your point sensibly I have only seen one other Mk7 GTi....

We saw a GTD in the dealership that had been ordered for someone else, not seen a GTD or a GTi on the road though. But then we haven't really been anywhere recently, going to Swansea on the weekend so may see one there
red GTD, sunroof. BW 39. Picked up 15.10.13

Only seen the red demo GTI at the dealer many moons ago.  I have not seen any since.  Mine will most likely be the only GTI in the village for a while... That is of course when I eventually get it!

Seen a CSG grey GTD on the M20/M26 and tried to keep up in my 125k mile mk5 but it left me behind he was going at some pace and I was on cruise at 75mph until he came along  :laugh:
